Gadgets and Gizmos for Fitness
I thought today’s visit to the #TechStyleNYC Fashion Week Event was going to be a mini-break in the middle of the day. I did not expect to find some new, cool fashion-meets-fitness accessories!
I’ve posted articles on fitness when you travel and exercises made for your beach day, but one thing we never talked about: what to listen to while you are gettin’ your FIT on!
That’s where this cool little gadget comes in–> Earin
Earin comes with its own storage/ charging station that’s just larger than a lipstick you would already find in your purse. The ear buds last 3 hours and you just pop them back into that lipstick case and they charge! Super simple, super sleek.
Up side: no more ripping out your earbud while lifting or stretching <- I really hate when this happens!
Only downside: I have really small ears, and Earin sticks out of my head kind of far. So, if you don’t care how you look and you are okay with Frankenstein-esque neck plugs that migrated up and seem to be growing out of your ears, I would go for it. 🙂
and on to…
Flashion Statement
I’ve posted photos of this next product on Instagram because, let’s face it, it is totally cool and, for the next group party, I am totally going to up my group T-shirt game and buy into these guys. You can find them here.
Evening runners- this one is for you. Such an amazing idea to those who run through Central Park after work- or run anywhere for that matter.
Huge upside: there is a great added level of safety if you are an outdoor workout junkie AND it looks cool.
Downside: there is a battery pack and cord that is definitely necessary (I did hear about a wireless option, but I did not get to actually see it). So, I could see how this would get annoying if it bounces around while gettin’ your FIT on.
The long and short of all of this:
so much cool stuff is popping up in the Tech meets Fashion world and I am excited to see that they are doing things for fitness also!
